She & Him: "The Christmas Waltz" (Live On Leno) (Video)

It still feels pretty early for Christmas celebrations, but the folks at Merge probably know what they’re doing by putting She & Him’s seasonal record, A Very She & Him Christmas, out there already. The duo showed up on Jay Leno’s show last night, where they played a version of “The Christmas Waltz” to a backdrop of Christmas trees and a figure of Santa Claus. It seems like it would have made more sense to hold back on this performance and have it in late December instead, but it’s possible that Zooey Deschanel’s commitment to New Girl wouldn’t allow that, so at least we got to hear this delicate take on the song. Check it out in the clip below. [via The Audio Perv]
